The selection; "Give Me Oil in My Lamp!" Hollywood Beatniks Are a Grim, Laughless Crowd BANNERMAN IN HOSPITAL PALMYRA-A. R. Bannerman, agent, suffered a stroke Saturday and was taken to Fort Atkinson Hospital by ambulance. By BOB THOiVIAS HOLLYWOOD (AP "Let's go watch the beatniks," my friend said. It sounded like a good idea.

After all, this was a phase of my own beat, the entertainment field. Coffee houses are springing up like mushrooms on Hollywood and Sunset boulevards and other byways of the beat generation. So we went. Incidentally, it was author Jack Kcrouac who apparently set the theme and the name of the beatnik movement. In one of his rambling works, he is said to describe a transition from being a dead-l beat to a feeling of beatitude.

The generation might also be termed as being beat (tired) and having a beat (jaz). Take your choice. The joint on the Sunset Strip was dark, narrow and loud with the efforts of a three-piece combo of questionable jazz talent. The small tables were tightly packed with young people. They glowered over their coffee cups.

We felt square in our coats and ties. The males were in shirt sleeves with blue jeans or corduroy pants; I had the feeling that anyone in a gray flannel suit would have been banished. The girls were in peasant skirts, Capri pants, pedal pushers, clam diggers and whatever else they call those pants. A fellow in an open-necked shirt and Ivy League pants came forward and reported in a Marlon Brando-like mumble that might be a table in the balcony. Wo continued through the place and into the back patio.

It was filled with tables surrounded by more of the same. They watched raptly as a young fellow plunked a guitar and talked folk There was a balcony above this scene and a vacant, rickety table where we ordered Italian coffee and chocolate at 65 ceiits a cup. At those prices, breatniks can't be poorniks. We sat on the balcony and watched the crowd as two other folk singers took over with their guitars. "Why don't beatniks laugh?" I asked.

"Because life is grim, life is earnest," my friend said, "They can find nothing to laugh about in this age of anxiety when the bomb may fall any moment." We had to admit that every beat or is compelled to seek its own fla vor. We had beer, Glenn Miller and Betty Grable. They have cof fee, and the shade of Jimmy Dean, Only one thing concerns me: Why don't they laugh? BLASTS RACIAL DISPUTES MILWAUKEE John Blatnik (D-Minn.) said Sunday the United States cannot win friends abroad as long as racial disputes demonstrate unfriendli- Loses His Fingers in Shredder PALMYRA-Robert Stacey. 39, Palmyra, mink farm operator, suffered the loss of all fingers of his right hand at the first joint as a result of an accident while attempting to adjust a corn shredder. He was cleaning out a portion of the machinery when his hand became caught in the knives.

He was taken to Fort Atkinson ness in America. He addressed the 50th anniversary banquet of the South Slavic Benevolent Union. Hospital by Dr. J. Handeyside.

Stacey was working on farm of his late grandfather at Milendy's Prairie when the mishap curred Friday. He is primarily a mink ranch farmer and is not too familiar with other types of farming.
